About this cabin rental

Our cabin is conveniently located 1 mile outside of small town Dushore. It offers a private getaway on 40 acres of wooded land encompassing a creek, walking trails on the old railroad tracks and much more.

Our cabin has a long history dating back to being used as a railroad scale house. The property contains old railroad tracks used as walking trails along with miles of other walking trails

Great living space that is open to the loft which contains two beds. Private bedroom with a queen bed. Living space has a recliner and futon that can be used as a sleeping spot.

Full size kitchen with electric stove and refrigerator. A grill and outdoor Fire pit are provided for additional cooking options. Large deck with family seating overlooks the nearby creek running through the property

Worlds End State Park and Ricketts Glenn State Park are both located within 20 miles from along with many other walking and hiking trails

There is a propane stove in the living room for heating along with electric baseboard in the bedroom. We have an air condition installed in the living room during the summer months

This is a cabin in the woods. You may experience deer, bear, turkeys, and other animals on the property. You also may see mice, spiders, or bugs as you are on a property in the woods. Please don’t hunt on the property. Thank you

We have bundles of fire wood available for sale. You are welcome to bring your own or use fallen limbs on the property, just please don’t cut down trees. We have some outdoor seating for the fire pit but would suggest also bringing your own along with some outdoor games if you wish!

Thanks
-Kelby and Markie.

This wonderful cabin in the woods suited us perfectly for a stay in the area to enjoy local state parks. Located between Worlds End and Ricketts Glen. Very clean. Excellent communication with property owners. Pet-friendly. Highly recommended!!!

Very clean and had just about everything you needed! The gas heater kept the whole place warm but there were plenty of blankets to keep warm under too. Definitely would recommend for a weekend away!

Prefect for a weekend away! The shack had everything we needed. The loft bedroom was a hit for our 7 year old. Beds were comfy and there were plenty of blankets. We were able to walk into town and also explored the old rail lines. West side deli was prefect to sit outside and eat lunch. Quick drive to Loyalsock for hiking. Make sure you pack warm, it gets chilly! Deck was great for a cup of coffee in the morning. Really a cool little spot especially if anyone in your family loves trains.

My boyfriend and I stayed at this property this past week in September. There was very little communication about problems in the cabin. Including minor but extremely inconvenient issues due to either lack of maintenance or lack of communication. The sink sprayed me because the faucet was broken, they were out of sugar for the coffee bar, the place was really dusty and the bed sinks in the middle. There was also someone directly across the street that could be seen clearly from the back deck even though the cabin is advertised as a sort of forest getaway. Kind of disappointing but the bathroom and sheets were clean, there was air conditioning, and the decor was cute and welcoming.
